Rampart Reservoir

The reservoir supplies water to the Tesla Hydroelectric Facility. Colorado Springs Utilities built and operates this hydroelectric power plant, which opened in 1997. Water from the reservoir flows down a shaft called the Stanley Tunnel and then into the turbines in a powerhouse located in the foothills west of the United States Air Force Academy. Given the reservoir's high altitude, the water arrives at the power plant at a high pressure.
